success stories "We cut the time it takes to implement firewall rules by at least 50%" Application owners for global retail chain get faster response times with application visibility and automated deployment. Orange Cyberdefense is the expert cybersecurity business unit of the Orange Group, providing managed security, managed threat detection & response services to organizations around the globe. They embed security into Orange Business Services solutions with more than 250 security researchers and analysts and 16 SOCs distributed around the world supporting customers in over 160 countries. The Challenge Orange Cyberdefense is an on-site consultant for a large retail chain with hundreds of stores and hundreds of thousands of employees spread out across the world.The client has over 2,500 multi-vendor firewalls and Layer 3 devices in their global data centers. They also run hundreds of mission-critical business services. Business services include supply chain management and ERP systems, global eCommerce operations, financial management systems, and much more. As a result, they had to cope with hundreds of change requests daily.Some of the challenges included: Lack of centralized management – Multiple vendors’ firewalls are deployed, which were implemented by multiple third-party vendors. There was no validation that rules were consistently applied across multiple vendor’s management consoles. Commissioning and decommissioning devices – A mix of multi-vendor new and legacy devices run in the data center and maintaining consistency across multiple vendors and multiple versions of devices was difficult. Lack of automation – Firewall communication and traffic flows were described in Excel sheets and needed to be manually updated whenever there was a change. Slow execution of change requests – Implementing firewall changes took over a week. Poorly implemented rules – The rules did not reflect what the requester asked for. They either allowed too much traffic in or were too narrow, not allowing the required traffic and thus needed to be re-implemented. The Solution The client searched for a solution that provided: Faster implementation of firewall changes. Comprehensive firewall support for a globally dispersed multi-vendor, hybrid estate. Automation of security policy change management and documentation of security policy changes. Visibility into their business applications and traffic flows. They implemented the AlgoSec Security Policy Management Solution, made up of AlgoSec Horizon Security Analyzer, AlgoSec Horizon FireFlow, and AlgoSec Horizon AppViz and AppChange (formerly AlgoSec BusinessFlow). AlgoSec Horizon Security Analyzer analyzes complex network security policies across on-premise, cloud, and hybrid networks. It automates and simplifies security operations, including troubleshooting, auditing and risk analysis. Using Horizon Security Analyzer, the client can optimize the configuration of firewalls, and network infrastructure to ensure security and compliance. AlgoSec Horizon FireFlow enables security staff to automate the entire security policy change process from design and submission to proactive risk analysis, implementation, validation, and auditing. Its intelligent, automated workflows save time and improve security by eliminating manual errors and reducing risk. AlgoSec Horizon AppViz and AppChange (formerly AlgoSec BusinessFlow) discover, identify, and map business applications, providing critical security information regarding the firewalls and firewall rules supporting each connectivity flow. With AlgoSec AppChange, changes can be made at the business application level, including application migrations, server deployment, and decommissioning projects. The Results Some of the ways the client benefits from using AlgoSec include: Greater transparency by providing a single source of truth that took into consideration the entire network estate. 50% reduction in the time needed to implement firewall rules. More communication between network security/IT staff and business application owners who are now able to submit change requests in business language and easily describe their needs, thus reducing misconfigurations and potential breaches. Better compliance reporting – with both an easy API integration and also audit-ready compliance reports. Automated change management – network changes are now recorded while being made – not managed with Excel. By using AlgoSec, application owners have more visibility into the network and are better able to trace what has changed within their business applications. “Documentation is several hundred percent better this way,” said Hans Broomé, Network and Security Consultant at Orange Cyberdefense. “With many different versions of the services, by using AlgoSec the IT team is confident that they are making changes to the correct version.” There were even unexpected gains, such as improved security management procedures. Change requests became more accurate as they gained visibility into the network and made the change request process more systematic and transparent. Requesters, as well as stakeholders such as their managers, have full visibility of their change request’s status and can verify that the request works as intended. Orange Cyberdefense is also impressed with the dedicated attention they receive from AlgoSec. AlgoSec’s support team is familiar with the global organization and provides dedicated attention tailored to their exact needs. They stay up to date with the AlgoSec solution’s latest capabilities, and the technical team maximizes their use of it thanks to an extensive training library. “The best is yet to come,” concluded Broomé.

Tags Share this article 11/27/20 Published With the rapid proliferation of cloud computing, lean deployment methods, such as containers, have become common practice. According to CIO.com, 70% of global companies are expected to be running multiple apps simultaneously using a containerized framework, like Kubernetes in the next few years. But as Kubernetes’ use becomes more widespread, so do the vulnerabilities inherent to containerization. According to a 2019 Forbes article , Kubernetes had at least 7,000 identified vulnerabilities at the beginning of 2019 alone. Couple that with the fact that cyber-attacks involving containerization have increased a whopping 240% since 2018, and you’ll understand the value of security should your company use a solution like Kubernetes to handle its container orchestration. What Causes Kubernetes Security Blindspots? To understand how to best optimize your Kubernetes experience, it’s worthwhile to understand the basic ways security issues arise in a containerized framework. Images are the core building blocks of containerization; they are the executable process at the centre of your container. As a result, anything that exposes an image to a broader audience puts the container at risk of being hijacked. One of the primary ways this occurs is by using out-of-date software. Using old software gives malicious actors a small incongruence that they can exploit within the code. Another problem is poorly defined user access roles. If sensible changes aren’t made to an orchestration tool’s default settings, inappropriate parties may have access to alter the container’s core executable. Containerization gives you a way to manage a large number of processes easily and with increased adaptability. As a result, automation makes it impossible to keep your eyes on everything at once. Here are some best practices that can help you counter the wide range of vulnerabilities inherent to containerization and Kubernetes in general. Kubernetes Security Best Practices Given the architecture of the Kubernetes framework, security risks are a constant and evolving threat. Luckily, Google made Kubernetes an open-source application under the auspices of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation where solutions to new security issues are actively crowdsourced by the community. Regardless, there are a number of things that you can do during the build, deployment, and runtime phases to make your Kubernetes implementation more secure. Take care of your images Images are the heart of every container. Executable functions are essential, so images must be well-maintained and in good working order. Only use up-to-date images, scanning them regularly for security issues. As a rule of thumb, you should also avoid including unnecessary tools and functions in your image coding as they can inadvertently give hackers an access route. Ensure that your secrets remain secret The term “secrets” refers to any private information such as login credentials, tokens, or other sensitive data. While it’s not customary to keep sensitive data stored adjacent to the container’s image, the scenario has come up before. Keep secret data as far from the image as possible in order to increase security. Keep up-to-date with scans and security patches The community does a good job of patching Kubernetes when issues arise. If you don’t take the time to update both your OS and Kubernetes’ security, you give malware additional avenues of attack. Updates should be performed at least every nine months, if not more often. Due to the nature of how Kubernetes works, if you are using an outdated version, you could actively be spreading issues when the container is deployed elsewhere. Take advantage of customization to define user roles and access A container orchestration tool like Kubernetes is a complex web running thousands of processes across numerous machines. That means hundreds of end-users involved with the application. Take advantage of Kubernetes administrative functions to clearly define user roles, limiting full access for those who don’t need it. As they say, too many cooks spoil the broth. Keeping Kubernetes Simple and Safe Containers are an agile, lightweight framework for cloud computing, but manually deploying the correct containers to their destinations can quickly become overwhelming. An orchestration tool like Kubernetes is the perfect solution to managing your containerization, but the security risks inherent to this model can be restrictive. By keeping a few key practices in mind when implementing Kubernetes into your workflow, you can help to promote safety while streamlining your processes. To Sum It All Up Kubernetes has become the centrepiece of the cloud Native landscape and a notable advantage for organizations to rapidly manage and deploy their containerized business logic. But certain security best practices must be followed such as working with reliable docker images, properly defined resource quotas, network policies, work with namespaces for access control and authentication\authorization, and more.

Hey everyone, and welcome! If you're involved in keeping your organization safe online these days, you're in the right place. For years, security felt like building a super strong castle with thick walls and a deep moat, hoping the bad guys would just stay outside. But let's be real, in our multi-cloud world, that castle is starting to look a little... outdated. Think about it: your apps and data aren't neatly tucked away in one place anymore. They're bouncing around on AWS, Azure, GCP, all sorts of platforms – practically everywhere! Trying to handle that with old-school security is like trying to catch smoke with a fishing net. Not gonna work, right? That's why we're chatting today. Gal Yosef, Head of Product Management in the U.S., gets it. He's helped us dive into some crucial mindset shifts – basically, new ways of thinking – that are essential for navigating the craziness of modern security. We gotta ditch the old ways and get ready to be more agile, work together better, and ultimately, be way more effective. Mindset Shift #1: From "Our Stuff is Safe Inside This Box" to "Trust Nothing, Verify Everything" Remember the good old days? We built a perimeter – firewalls, VPNs – thinking that everything inside was safe and sound (danger!). Security was all about guarding that edge. The Problem: Well, guess what? That world is gone! Multi-cloud environments have totally shattered that perimeter. Trying to just secure the network edge leaves your real treasures – your applications, users, and data – vulnerable as they roam across different clouds. It's like locking the front door but leaving all the windows wide open! The New Way: Distributed Trust. Security needs to follow your assets, wherever they go. Instead of just focusing on the infrastructure (the pipes and wires), we need to embrace Zero-Trust principles . Think of it like this: never assume anyone or anything is trustworthy, even if they're "inside." We need identity-based, adaptive security policies that constantly validate trust, rather than just assuming it based on location. Security becomes built into applications and workloads, not just bolted onto the network. Think of it this way: Instead of one big, guarded gate, you have individual, smart locks on every valuable asset. You're constantly checking who's accessing what, no matter where they are. It's like having a personal bodyguard for each of your important things, always making sure they have the right ID. Mindset Shift #2: From "My Team Handles Network Security, Their Team Handles Cloud Security" to "Let's All Be Security Buddies!" Ever feel like your network security team speaks a different language than your cloud security team? You're not alone! Traditionally, these have been separate worlds, with network teams focused on firewalls and cloud teams on security groups. The Problem: These separate silos are a recipe for confusion and fragmented security policies. Attackers? They love this! It's like having cracks in your armor. They aren't always going to bash down the front door; they're often slipping through the gaps created by this lack of communication. The New Way: Cross-functional collaboration. We need to tear down those walls! Network and cloud security teams need to work together, speaking a shared security language. Unified visibility and consistent policies across all your environments are key. Think of it like a superhero team – everyone has their own skills, but they work together seamlessly to fight the bad guys. Regular communication, shared tools, and a common understanding of the risks are crucial. Mindset Shift #3: From "Reacting When Something Breaks" to "Always Watching and Fixing Things Before They Do" Remember the old days of waiting for an alert to pop up saying something was wrong? That's like waiting for your car to break down before you even think about checking the oil. Not the smartest move, right? The Problem: In the fast-paced world of the cloud, waiting for things to go wrong is a recipe for disaster. Attacks can happen super quickly, and by the time you react, the damage might already be done. Plus, manually checking everything all the time? Forget about it – it's just not scalable when you've got stuff spread across multiple clouds. The New Way: Continuous & Automated Enforcement. We need to shift to a mindset of constant monitoring and automated security actions. Think of it like having a security system that's always on, always learning, and can automatically respond to threats in real-time. This means using tools and processes that continuously check for vulnerabilities, enforce security policies automatically, and even predict potential problems before they happen. It's like having a proactive security guard who not only watches for trouble but can also automatically lock doors and sound alarms the moment something looks fishy. Mindset Shift #4: From "Locking Everything Down Tight" to "Finding the Right Balance with Flexible Rules" We used to think the best security was the strictest security – lock everything down, say "no" to everything. But let's be honest, that can make it super hard for people to actually do their jobs! It's like putting so many locks on a door that nobody can actually get through it. The Problem: Overly restrictive security can stifle innovation and slow things down. Developers can get frustrated, and the business can't move as quickly as it needs to. Plus, sometimes those super strict rules can even create workarounds that actually make things less secure in the long run. The New Way: Flexible Guardrails. We need to move towards security that provides clear boundaries (the "guardrails") but also allows for agility and flexibility. Think of it like setting clear traffic laws – you know what's allowed and what's not, but you can still drive where you need to go. This means defining security policies that are adaptable to different cloud environments and business needs. It's about enabling secure innovation, not blocking it. We need to find that sweet spot where security empowers the business instead of hindering it. Mindset Shift #5: From "Security is a Cost Center" to "Security is a Business Enabler" Sometimes, security gets seen as just an expense, something we have to do but doesn't really add value. It's like thinking of insurance as just another bill. The Problem: When security is viewed as just a cost, it often gets underfunded or seen as a roadblock. This can lead to cutting corners and ultimately increasing risk. It's like trying to save money by neglecting the brakes on your car – it might seem cheaper in the short term, but it can have disastrous consequences later. The New Way: Security as a Business Enabler. We need to flip this thinking! Strong security isn't just about preventing bad things from happening; it's about building trust with customers, enabling new business opportunities, and ensuring the long-term resilience of the organization. Think of it like a strong foundation for a building – without it, you can't build anything lasting. By building security into our processes and products from the start, we can actually accelerate innovation and gain a competitive advantage. It's about showing our customers that we take their data seriously and that they can trust us. Wrapping Up: Moving to a multi-cloud world is exciting, but it definitely throws some curveballs at how we think about security. By adopting these five new mindsets, we can ditch the outdated castle mentality and build a more agile, collaborative, and ultimately more secure future for our organizations. It's not about being perfect overnight, but about starting to shift our thinking and embracing these new approaches. So, let's level up our security game together!

This includes ensuring access to corporate data is secured, connectivity to the data center from both internal and external users is secured, and that critical security updates are installed. Now comes the big question: what if you have to migrate your security policy to a new platform? With cloud computing and distributed data centers across the world nothing in technology is ever constant anymore. So how do you control and manage a firewall migration? What if you use multiple vendors’ solutions with both virtual and physical appliances? A firewall migration can be as simple as moving from one model to another, or a lot more complicated. As an experienced cloud architect, I’ve been a part of a number of firewall migration projects. Here are three tips to help make your firewall migration project a little bit easier. Create powerful firewall and security visibility map. All aspects of your firewall must be documented and well planned before doing a migration, and you must plan for both current as well as future needs. Start by gathering information: create a visual, dynamic map of your firewall architecture and traffic, which should include all technical connectivity data. Understand, document and prepare policy migration. Once you have your visual firewall map it’s time to look under the hood. One firewall might be easy, but is it ever really just one security appliance? The dynamic nature of the modern data center means that multiple security vendors can live under one roof. So how do you create a policy migration plan around heterogeneous platforms? You need to identify and document all the security policies and services and network algorithms for each firewall end-point. Analyze business impact and create a migration path. How do your applications interact with various security policies? Do you have specific business units relying on specific firewall traffic? How are various data centers being segmented by your security policies? Migrating a firewall will have a business-wide impact. You must ensure that this impact is absolutely minimal. You need to understand how your entire business model interacts with firewall and security technologies and if any piece of the business is forgotten technological headaches may be the least of your worries. Migrating a firewall doesn’t have to be hard, but it must be well planned. With so much information traversing the modern data center, it’s imperative to have complete visibility across the security architecture. Ultimately, with the right tools to help you plan, map and actually implement a firewall change process, and lots of cups of coffee, you can greatly reduce security migration complexity. #FirewallMigration Schedule a demo Related Articles Q1 at AlgoSec: What innovations and milestones defined our start to 2026?

Meanwhile, the Verizon 2025 Data Breach Investigation Report shows ransomware attacks caused 44% of all system-intrusion breaches. These data points underline that organizations must establish robust security measures early on to prevent future problems from occurring. This guide provides essential information about vulnerability management today through its presentation of top vulnerability management tools on the market for 2025. What Is Vulnerability Management? Vulnerability management is a process of ongoing asset discovery to locate weaknesses, which are then evaluated according to their risk level and business value. This approach enables fast problem-solving and generates clear, easy-to-understand data for stakeholders. Key Features of Modern Vulnerability Management Tools Organizations require a vulnerability management platform that protects their data centers, multiple cloud services, and SaaS platforms through analytical and automated features. To find the right vulnerability management tool for your environment, you need to assess both network vulnerability tools and application-aware engines. What Is Asset Discovery in Vulnerability Management and Why Does It Matter? Asset discovery in vulnerability management requires organizations to identify all hardware and software components within their network infrastructure. This first step is critical, as it allows companies to understand their security vulnerabilities and create appropriate protection plans. There is no safeguarding the invisible. This is why your chosen toolset must automatically detect all endpoints, servers, containers, applications, and internet-accessible assets that exist within both cloud and on-premises environments. A unified inventory system that integrates multiple data sources enables vulnerability scans to detect more assets. This, in turn, minimizes the number of detection and identification issues that occur when assets exist outside of your system. Why Is Continuous Vulnerability Monitoring Essential in 2025? Vulnerability monitoring will continue to be necessary in 2025 and beyond because the method of point-in-time assessments does not identify changing risk factors that are fast-evolving. The market-leading security tools employ business-relevant threat intelligence to help teams detect weaknesses that create risk. They also provide documentation, which is key. Auditors, engineers, and executives require clear documentation to demonstrate how continuous vulnerability monitoring leads to correct change control procedures and proper prioritization. A key aspect of automated vulnerability management is the combination of vulnerability scanning with patch management to maximize system defenses. Automated Vulnerability Management: How Patch Management and Vulnerability Scanning Work Together Traditionally, organizations use automated vulnerability management to decrease MTTR by creating service tickets/change requests and deploying secure patch solutions. However, organizations can automatically respond to detected threats if vulnerability scanning systems maintain a close link to patch management systems. The practice of automated vulnerability management integrates the steps of patch approval with rollout and verification, creating a single operational workflow. This approach provides an automation-based vulnerability management process that operates during scheduled maintenance periods. At the same time, a solution’s documentation system produces results for both auditable and transparent outcome-tracking. Reporting and Analytics for Effective Vulnerability Management Programs Custom dashboards aren’t just for engineers. Executives rely on them as well. A tool’s reporting system needs to deliver exposure trend information alongside SLA performance data and straightforward resolution paths. Leading platforms display CVEs through business-oriented visualizations that show how attacks could affect specific applications. Comparing Network Vulnerability Tools and Open Source Vulnerability Scanners Enterprise-grade scalability in commercial network vulnerability tools comes from: Asset correlation Risk-based prioritization ITSM/CMDB integrations Advanced reporting Network vulnerability tools support broad discovery operations and program governance, while open-source scanners deliver fast and targeted vulnerability assessments for development pipeline testing. Open-source scanners enable teams to perform fast PR reviews and test new security policies within CI/CD environments.

But, hold up – with great power comes great responsibility. It’s time to build up those digital defenses against all the lurking risks that come with the cloud craze. Since we’re all jumping headfirst into cloud computing, let’s talk about some killer moves and strategies that can turn your organization into a fortress of cloud security, ready to take on anything. Mastering the Cloud Security Playground Picture this: you’re in a race to grab the transformative benefits of the cloud, and every step forward is like leveling up. Sounds cool, right? But, before you go all in, you need to get the lowdown on the constantly changing world of cloud security. Picking Your Defender: What Cloud Providers Bring to the Table Choosing a cloud provider is like choosing your champion. Think AWS, GCP, Azure – these giants are committed to providing you with a secure playground. They’ve got this crazy mix of cutting-edge security tech and artificial intelligence that builds a solid foundation. And guess what? Diversifying your cloud playground can be a power move. Many smart organizations go for a multi-cloud setup, and tools like AlgoSec make it a breeze to manage security across all your cloud domains. The Hybrid Puzzle: Where Security Meets the Unknown Okay, let’s talk about the big debate – going all-in on the cloud versus having a foot in both worlds. It’s not just a tech decision; it’s like choosing your organization’s security philosophy. Keeping some stuff on-premises is like having a security safety net. To navigate this mixed-up world successfully, you need a security strategy that brings everything together. Imagine having a magic lens that gives you a clear view of everything – risks, compliance, and automated policies. That’s the compass guiding your ship through the hybrid storm. A Master Plan for Safe Cloud Travels In this digital universe where data and applications are buzzing around like crazy, moving to the cloud needs more than just a casual stroll. It needs a well-thought-out plan with security as the VIP guest. App Connections: The Soul of Cloud Migration Apps are like the lifeblood of your organization, and moving them around recklessly is a big no-no. Imagine teaming up with buddies like Cisco Secure Workload, Illumio, and Guardicore. Together, they map out your apps, reveal their relationships, and lay down policies. This means you can make smart moves that keep your apps happy and safe. The Perfect Move: Nailing the Application Switch When you’re moving apps , it’s all about precision – like conducting a symphony. Don’t get tangled up between the cloud and your old-school setup. The secret? Move the heavy-hitters together to keep everything smooth, just like a perfectly choreographed dance. Cleaning House: Getting Rid of Old Habits Before you let the cloud into your life, do a little Marie Kondo on your digital space. Toss out those old policies, declutter the legacy baggage, and create a clean slate. AlgoSec is all about minimizing risks – tune, optimize, and refine your policies for a fresh start. Think of it as a digital spring-cleaning that ensures your cloud journey is free from the ghosts of the past. The Cloud’s Secure Horizon As we venture deeper into the digital unknown, cloud security becomes a challenge and a golden opportunity. Every step towards a cloud-fueled future is a call to arms. It’s a call to weave security into the very fabric of our cloud adventures. Embrace the best practices, charge ahead with a kick-butt strategy, and make sure the cloud’s promise of a brighter tomorrow is backed up by an ironclad commitment to security. Now, that’s how you level up in the cloud game! Schedule a demo Related Articles Q1 at AlgoSec: What innovations and milestones defined our start to 2026?
